List of 2015 SGA Candidates

by Craig Berger

Cross-posted from the 2015 SGA Election Board myUMBC Group.

Below is a list of the students who submitted applications to run for SGA positions in the April election. This list is preliminary and not final (the names listed below will be checked for eligibility and may appear differently on the ballot, including their order).

All candidates must receive a number of votes equal to at least 5% of the number of total votes cast in the election. Write-in votes are permitted in SGA elections. Candidates are elected by plurality. For Senate, the top eleven vote-getters will be elected; for Finance Board, the top five vote-getters will be elected.

The election will take place through myUMBC on Monday, April 20th, Tuesday, April 21st, and Wednesday, April 22nd. On those three days, the polls will be open from 8am to 12pm and from 8pm to 12am.

The results will be released on Thursday, April 23rd at 3:30 p.m. in the Student Organization Space on the 2nd Floor of The Commons.

More information, including candidate profiles and scheduled Election Board-sponsored campaign events, will be posted soon at http://my.umbc.edu/groups/electionboard.

All candidates will receive an e-mail message from the Election Board Chair with information about candidate information sessions, SGA Election Rules, and other important information.
